Thumbs up Adamantium Spacers

I am thinking of putting spacers on my stock 06. Is there ANY other advantages to putting them on besides looks?

I can't find adamantium ones. So I may go with Ichiba... Any benefits for putting on spacers besides looks?

The only thing spacers are good for is looks. Otherwise they can be dangerous if not installed correctly. And maybe the reason you can't find adamantium spacers is because WoW is only a game, and there's no such thing as adamantium that exists.

Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't a wider stance improve handling, not a major improvement but defiantly not just for looks.

It also puts more stress on your stock studs.

People put spacers on for the track all the time - most without any problems. I haven't come across any threads on 'Driver about stock studs failing with spacers. If you think the stock studs are too weak, then don't get the bolt on spacers and get the old school ones that come with extended studs that replace the stock studs.

The studs aren't the problem, its the stress on the hub bearings.
